Although Blood Sword is part of a series, it was written to stand alone. That said, most people, however, like to start with Flank Hawk since it is the first novel in the series.
Yeah, the ebooks are fairly inexpensive, especially compared to titles published by the big five publishers. I hope you enjoy the read--be sure to let me know what you think.
So far, I like it You have a good writing style and strong dialogue. I'm trying to read up on more RPG stories. Turns out I really enjoy role-playing stuff.
LitRPG is a pretty hot subgenre of fantasy & SF. There's a wide variety of stories out there. My Monsters, Maces and Magic series is not what is called 'crunchy' with a lot of numbers, game notifications, etc. It's LitRPG 'Light' or 'Lite', meaning there are game elements, and progression, but less reliance on the repeated use of numbers and notifications in the story telling process (that's a short explanation).
Thanks for asking.
